     23* Qt 6.9.3
     24 - PyQt6-Qt6 is still at Qt 6.9.2 even though Qt 6.9.3 has been out 2 weeks.
     25 - Hoping Qt 6.9.3 might fix some Mac bugs.
     26 - Crash on status line expose in OpenGL swap buffers in macOS Tahoe.
     27 - Could be mac Tahoe crash might be helped by Info.plist change to use legacy graphics instead of Liquid Glass noted to cause problems in Qt release notes if XCode older than version 15.  We don't know XCode version for PyQt6-Qt6 wheel.
     28 - Stacked tools don't show tab buttons in Mac Qt 6.9.2.
     29 - Crash dragging tool rapidly in Mac Qt 6.9.2.
     30
     31* ChimeraX 1.11 release schedule
     32 - Start release candidates mid-November for a mid-December release.
     33
     34* Chimera graphics positioning on macOS Tahoe
     35 - Eric is comparing Tix and Togl code that makes custom Tk widgets since Tix works but Togl does not.
     36 - Will try making Togl use Tix method of initialization.
     37
     38* Windows code signing
     39 - Greg has documentation on ChimeraX wiki.
     40 - Eric will at links from Chimera/ChimeraX intranet html page to wiki to make it easy to find.
     41 - Greg will soon try moving signing to production machine.
     42
     43* Filtering bug reports
     44 - Ways to reduce duplicate bug reports that take a lot of Eric's time.
     45 - Reject bug reports that are anonymous and from older ChimeraX versions.
     46 - Discard the anonymous old version bugs in cgi script.
     47 - Old versions include any version older than current release, with 1 month grace period immediately after a release.
     48 - Also we can change the ChimeraX Bug Report GUI text to say anonymous bugs from older ChimeraX versions will not be acted on.
     49 - Would be useful if ChimeraX bug reporter knew if a newer ChimeraX is out.  Greg says Toolshed update currently discards that info.  With that info the bug reporter message can tell the user their ChimeraX is old.
     50 - Another change is to disable Windows crash reports in daily build. These have not been useful.
     51 - Greg will work on cgi web form update.
     52 - Tom will add bug reporter text and disable windows crash reports.
